Top 10 reasons not to legalize weed in the US:
1. Taxes
2. Well, the police would probably come up with a way to tell if you were driving under the influence right then....and personally, i would be fucked almost everytime i got pulled over.
3. damn.......FUCK.......someone help me out here.....maybe it should be legal.......anyone know any other reasons to keep it illegal?
so people can keep hating the goverment for keeping weed illegal
Are you kidding? Weed would be way less expensive, even with significant taxes, if it could be mass produced and taxed like tobacco is.Quote:

yeah, i know it would be less....but taxes is giving to the govt, and they would probably spend it on defense, weapons, armed forces, etc., not something positive like NASA, so they can find out how to get us the fuck off the planet. Or, they could use it for medical research. If we put enought ime and effort into medecine rather than governing other third world countries and stupid bush shit, we might have a cure for the common cold at least, instead of being able to launch a missile halfway around the world and hit a fly in the ass. I think i would like legalization, but i know i would be screwed everytime i got pulled over, and that is a big setback. anyways....peace

4) it can cause development problems in younger smokers

In fact, imagine how much dumber America would be if we were all high all the time.
yeah
i agree man, i love weed with all my heart but ill be the first to admit its bad, and truthfully it shouldnt be legalized. the only true reason is convience, so we wouldnt have to worry about being seen with it or while smoking, and easyer to get...but the last think stoners need is convience...shit...we're lazy enough already
I see it more as people all have choices in life to make for themselves. Drinking is addictive and causes liver problems yet people choose to drink anyways, or better yet smoking ciggs we all know is bad yet it is legal. I just feel we should be given the power to make the decision for ourselves and not by people who's antiquated views are not in line with my own.
